Recently, I had been contemplating on the nature, strength, endurance & ultimate fate of these resourceful elegant beautiful living resources we call ' Trees'. If I began to list the benefits of these amazing life forms we would be here all day, because we all now how beneficial they are to survival, growth and to our own existence too.
Instead, I wrote a small piece of writing to acknowledge them and also tried to capture their essence through colour in this painting below I titled Harmony.
At a time when deforestation and the illegal and unlawful cutting down of trees is a huge concern globally, I have written the below piece in a quest to express their value, preciousness and resourcefulness through the symbol of its own life, hence the reference to a dream.

I have a dream
I am the tree that stands tall
shifting directions as the wind blows
falling, repairing and growing again
never permanent always moving
changing colours with the seasons
touched by the rays of light
and radiating the light in rainbow colours
speaking of a thousand years
in a tune you hear of love and life
I am the tree, I have a dream
